What to Expect
Professionalism, communication, and experience. With over 20 years as a professional DJ and Emcee, I strive to give my clients the very best, top-notch, professional service possible. I believe in strong communication and being proactive when it comes to planning any event. I have extensive experience in knowing how to get the job done successfully. I work tirelessly to create the events my clients envision, bringing their vision to life is always my goal.
Expect seamless mixes, high energy, and musical knowledge from all various genres. I understand how to program music and the importance of knowing the right song to play at the right time. I am always able and willing to work with my clients on a music library for the event that is sure to satisfy all of their guests and allows them to experience the event at its fullest potential.
When we work together you will experience my dedication, passion, and love for what I do. What I do isn't simply just to play music at your event, it is to create long-lasting memories! To create those moments you and your clients/guests will cherish forever! Helping to make the event run as smoothly as possible is my main goal at each and every event.
Always striving for excellence, I will work with you and listen to what your wants, needs, and expectations are for every aspect of the event. Having 20+ years of experience, I know how to prepare for any unforeseen issues along with the knowledge of how to problem solve, effectively and efficiently. We will work together to ensure that every aspect of your event is thought out, worked through, and executed to the very best of my abilities.
Time management is just as important to me as everything else. Therefore, you can expect me to always be on time, be available, and provide you with the most dedicated attention I possibly can. I know how important it is to respond quickly to emails, texts, and phone calls. Being aware of how valuable your time is, you can always expect quick and valuable responses.
My setup always looks; sharp, crisp, and clean. I use some of the very best, industry standards when it comes to DJ and audio equipment. It is important to me that the client always knows exactly what to expect so that there are never any misunderstandings or miscommunications. Keeping that direct line of communication always open is key for our success.
Finally, when we work together you can expect a partner, someone who will be as invested in your event as you are. Your success is my success and I will always do whatever I can to achieve that success with you. I take pride in my work and in everything I do. When we work together, I want you to feel confident and rest assured that you do not have anything to worry about when it comes to the music, the energy, and the DJ/ Emcee.
